As several Idolator commenters have pointed out, the Arcade Fire are more than likely S.O.L. when it comes to taking legal action against Fox Sports using their song "No Cars Go" for its NFL telecasts' bumpers; the Daily Swarm has posted a reminder of the last time Fox pulled a similar move on a band that may not have necessarily wanted to be associated with the Murdoch organization, a 2005 Eagles game where the network used a Minor Threat song in a bumper by claiming (the quite legal) "ephemeral use."

  • You know if the AF had the opportunity, they'd play the halftime show at the Superbowl.

    David Bowie would join them in the middle, and there'd be a laser light show of Neon Bibles floating around the megadome.

    There are even enough people in the band that they could enter the field by running through a giant piece of paper.

  • And they'd be given 110 yards of field to do it
